Topic: My original Coinmarketcap.com bookmark makes me nostalgic - page 2. (Read 245 times)
Really good to know u are with Coinmarketcap from 2013 and i know cryptocurrency from 2016 but now Coinmarketcap is Giving too much info about coins and this is the best place to see which market is on top of down. but i am not using this site much more because TAB TRADER app is sufficient for me this is the good app for trader definitely everyone like this.
Because the title of the site then and so my old bookmark reads "Crypto-Currency Market Capitalizations | Bitcoin Litecoin Peercoin Namecoin Novacoin Primecoin Feathercoin WorldCoin CryptogenicBullion Devcoin and more..." when I set the bookmark in around 2013. Only two, Bitcoin and Litecoin are still widely talked about, the rest has more or less gone into oblivion.
I just thought I'll mention it.

Yeah, some of them I'm still familiar at like WorldCoin. But crypto's already evolved so much that some of them may have died a natural death and totally forgotten. I think its like less than 20 coins at that time and today we see hundreds if not thousands of tokens being born everyday and currently in circulation with no purpose at all but for pure pump-and-dump scheme.
-snip-
I think it's so they can cash in on newbies who don't understand the market. There are endless threads in this forum with people shouting about some cheap coin that only costs cents, completely failing to understand that there are billions or even trillions in circulation. Some newbies won't even buy Bitcoin, instead buying trash alts, because they think it's too expensive.
I've never been a fan of coin market cap. Market cap is a poor way of defining a coin's value and only implores new coins and tokens to provide massive amounts of coins.
What's wrong with a total of 21 million coins? Or less even. Its why so many coins are issued in the billions, its their only chance to show up on coin market cap.

All coins are not in the market to stay. Bitcoin, Litecoin were potential enough to survive and the rest are almost forgotten. There are many such coins now as well which has a huge hype now but will be forgotten in the long run. So, choose your coin wisely.
the more interesting thing about that is the fact that all the top 10 coins were very different back then and #2 was a very different coin which has changed many times in past years each time with a new altcoin claiming to be replacing bitcoin just to disappear a while later and each time they make the claims a lot of newbies fall for that and pour their money into them!!!
ps. my nostalgic bookmark is for preev which says "256.3 USD - Preev"

WOW, 2013. It has been long way you are with coinmarketcap. It really a nice site. I hope it will also stay with the traders for more than coming decades.
You can see historical snapshots on Coinmarketcap at this page: https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/
For example, the first snapshot back in April 2013 only has seven coins: Bitcoin, Litecoin, Peercoin, Namecoin, Terracoin, Devcoin and Novacoin.

That's true somehow. Many of the Coins were "hot" in 2013 and today many people do not even know these Coins. There you can see how fast the crypto world is developing and how quickly hot Coins turns into old and forgotten Coins. 2013, the crypto world was still manageable.
Coinmarketcap is just trying to spam the title tag for ranking with some "not popular coins". Old school method from 2010 haha. Pretty sure if you check in 3 months some coins will be added and/or removed.
Basically, it could just something like Crypto Market Capitalization (and moon)

If only I had thought about crypto at that time, I would be in much better condition I'm in presently. But I think and hope that its not too late yet and we are still early in this amazing journey.
